  • Well, we already had travel chaos before the “heavy” snow.

    I’m not kidding, that amount of “chaos” we used to have during snow is now the amount of chaos we have all year long and the chaos caused by snow is now additional.

    Funfact: Our most backwards shitty bavarian party, CSU, held the ministry of transportation since 2009. Since 2021, it’s our most libertarian shitty party, FDP. Guess who gets funded the most by car companies in all of europe? Yes, these parties.















  • Yup, my thoughts exactly - the article seems really bad when it comes to informing the reader. At least they mentioned this part:

    The EU’s foreign policy chief, Josep Borrell, blamed a lack of production capacity, suggesting that Europe’s defence industry needed to change its priorities from exporting 40% of its products to other countries.

    Sounds like the stuff is there, but capitalism© has decided that Ukraine doesn’t get it. If I had to guess, it’s because the manufacturers want more money from European countries.

    The argument would then be as follows: “We have older contractual obligations to fulfill. If you want us to prioritize Ukraine, pay us [amount which exceeds any contract delay fine]”.

    Pure speculation on my part, mixed with some experience in the military procurement sector.
